 The Phillies played 16 of their first 17 games at Citizens Bank Park and managed only an 8--9 record during that time (8--8 at home).  Now, for the fourth time since 2015, Philadelphia has lost at least four of its first five road games: 0--5 in 2015, 1--4 in 2016, 2018 and this season.

 Atlanta's starting pitchers rank 26th in the majors with a 5.38 ERA.  But Braves relievers rank second in MLB with 11 wins (11--3, 3.51 ERA), trailing only the Rays (14--5).

 Max Fried is the National League's only 20-game winner since the start of last season (20--6, 3.61 ERA), and since the 2019 All-Star break he has been dominant: 11--2, 2.91 in 18 starts, and the Braves have won 15 of those games.

 On the other hand, Aaron Nola is one of only two National League pitchers with at least 12 wins in each of the past three seasons (12--11 in 2017, 17--6 in 2018, 12--7 in 2019).  The other is Jon Lester.

 Bryce Harper has swung at the first pitch on 50.0% of his plate appearances this season, well above the career high that he set last season (44.3%).  Harper has more walks (15) than strikeouts (13) this season, and his strikeout rate would be a career low (15.1%)

 It's no surprise that J.T. Realmuto leads the majors in RBIs as a catcher this season (19), but who predicted Travis d'Arnaud at #3 in that category (14 RBIs)?  Martin Maldonado ranks second (17).

HP - Ortiz, 1B - Hoye, 2B - Estabrook, 3B - Whitson

The Philadelphia Phillies have lost five straight, but you can't blame outfielder Bryce Harper.
Harper, who has reached base in each of the 22 games in which he's played, is having a great offensive season. The Phillies just haven't been able to take advantage of it.

Harper, Phillies try to snap skid at Atlanta

ATLANTA (AP)  Rhys Hoskins, Didi Gregorius and Alec Bohm homered, Philadelphia's bullpen turned in a rare strong performance and the Phillies snapped a five-game skid with a 5-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Sunday night.
It wasn't easy for the Phillies, who watched closer Brandon Workman survive the ninth when Dansby Swanson, the potential tying run, was tagged out at the plate by catcher Andrew Knapp to end the game. The Braves challenged the call, but it was upheld.
